Balasingam said: “It’s fantastic to win this huge prize. I was so surprised when
I found out, and obviously very happy. It’s great because one of my children is at university and the other has just passed his driving test, and this money means I can help both of them a bit more now. We’re actually looking at cars as we speak.” In addition, 10 retailers secured a prize of £1,000 each for maintaining
high in-store standards across the quarter. Winning retailers included: Zahoor Ahmed of Lifestyle Express in Airdrie, Kanagarajah Mathipalarajah of Meadgate News in Chelmsford, Shaun Robinson of Peak Stores in Chesterfield, Sucha Singh of Newthorpe Food and Wine in Nottingham, and Gurkamel Garcha of St Anne’s Store in Willenhall. Five of the winning retailers wished to remain anonymous. Zahoor said: “I feel very proud to have won, as I take great pride in my store’s standards. I always promote the National Lottery in my shop, as I know ticket sales help my store generate money for National Lottery Good Causes.” Camelot’s Retail Director, Jenny Blogg, said: “Well done to this quarter’s Site, Stock, Sell online winners – yet more fantastic work from National Lottery retailers who continue to keep those in-store standards at a very high level. Thank you for all your hard work. We’re looking forward to a fantastic year ahead, with lots of retailer rewards and initiatives lined up for 2022.” National Lottery retailers who would like to get involved with Camelot’s rewards programmes, including Site, Stock, Sell online, can sign up at www. tnlretailerhub.co.uk.
